The SP8720 is an ECL two-modulus divider, with ECL10K
compatible outputs. It divides by 3 when either of the ECL control
inputs, PE1 or PE2, is in the high state and by 4 when both are low
(or open circuit). An AC coupled input of 600mVp-p is required.

OPERATING NOTES
1. The clock input is biased internally and is coupled to the signal
source with a suitable capacitor. The input signal path is completed
by an input reference decoupling capacitor which is connected
from pin 16 to ground.
2. If no signal is present the device will self-oscillate. If this is
undesirable, it may be prevented by connecting a 15kΩ resistor
from the clock input (pin 1) to V
EE
. This will reduce the input
sensitivity by approximately 100mV.
3. The circuit will operate down to DC but slew rate must be better
than 100V/µs.
4. The Q and Q outputs are compatible with ECLII but can be
interfaced to ECL10K as shown in Fig. 7. There is an internal
circuit equivalent to a load of 2kΩ at each output.
5. The PE inputs are ECLIII/10K compatible and include 4·3kΩ
pulldown resistors. Unused inputs can therefore be left open.
6. The input impedance of the SP8720 varies as a function of
frequency, see Fig. 5.
7. All components should be suitable for the frequency in use.
